Jesus, JT, how did you skip one of the biggest deals: IDW comic-based figures!! Trailbreaker and Metroplex both appear to take some cues from the IDW versions, and the Megatron, Orion Pax, and Bumblebee are full-on IDW.

I am already standing in front of Target, waiting for Autobot Commander Bumblebee (I'm calling him that, though I know there's no way it'll be an official name). And he'd better have his cane! They've got to figure out how to pack it in as some sort of accessory for those who don't read the comic, but, eh, I guess it'd be fairly easy to customize.

(Seriously, this is pretty big. Folks have been begging the Joe team to make IDW versions of some characters who look way different, but I didn't expect the TF team to do it instead.)

Good lord, I somehow missed the link while giggling softly to myself in the sea of Blitzwing and Metroplex images. My bad. Actually, Hasbro's bad on making such an awesome-looking Metroplex we'll all have to find room for.

I think I'm taking back what I said about this being a crap year for TFs. Still not excited about the FOC EU Wreckers and such, but the stuff after looks amazing.

Found what was probably the full range of the currently-released later waves of FOC this morning. Kickback looks like butt. He was an easy pass. I don't need or want Cybertronian Starscream, Air Raid, or Kickback at $16 apiece. I did pick up Grimlock, Blaster and, even though I've passed on him several times, Ultra Magnus.

And, unless I change my mind on something I've seen already, that means I only need the Wave 2 Retaliation 3-packs, a few of the Marshalls Joes, and I'm done with toys for a while. (That's both a good thing and a bad thing.)
